Students help build home, faith

Aletheia Christian Academy’s 17 juniors have left their mark on the Habitat for Humanity house they are helping build on North Baylen Street.

Scriptures from Romans 8:28 and Proverbs 24:3 are written on posts in the living room and a bedroom.

“The verse from Proverbs is one of my favorites,” Nathan Simpson, Student Government Association vice president, said, after helping hang a door Wednesday. “It related to what we are doing because you want a house to have a firm foundation.”

This is the 10th year the school’s juniors have helped build a Habitat house. On Wednesday afternoon, seniors attended the dedication for a house they worked on last year on Ryan Avenue that went to Shavon Crocker, 30.
